i'm tired of being a failure 
a skank, a freak, a whore 
i'm tired of being greedy 
and always wanting more 

i'm tired of being a person 
aware, awake, alive 
i'm tired of being strong 
just trying to survive 

i'm tired of being held captive 
by some rare hint of sun 
i'm tired of being tired 
when will life be done?
